They say they will continue in Russia and will that include the Ukraine where they are built at an old Daewoo factory?

Why? Are yer gonna get one?

No, my next car will be a GM.....

Another Omega, but they are much more expensive over there, but they don't use salt on the roads in the winter as everybody uses winter tyres, like they should be made to in Reading the UK, so very little rust on them. 

Very difficult to find post 1998 3.0 / 3.2 estates, most of them have 2/3 engines. 

Price wise about $6,000, so not cheap.

Can you not find a good one here and take it with you?.........

Only if I want to pay about €12,000 import duty.  So cheaper to buy one there even if it means importing and fitting a proper engine, a V6 or V8, as parts don't have such horrendous import duties. The import duties are based on age and engine size, with them going up as a vehicle gets older to protect their local production with old designs of Daewoos about as good as that gets.

Sorry I forget, what country? surely if part of the EU you should be ok, got to work both ways......

Don't think they're in the EU... Which is probably part of the appeal

[Sir Tigger KC]

The people want to be though, but Putin's turned the thumbscrews so the Ukrainian President has backed off having closer ties with the EU. 

That's why it's kicking off there!!!
